Simple DIY “Born In The USA” Baby Onesie

Make your own “Born In The USA” shirt or baby clothes with this cute SVG file; grab it here!

I absolutely love this red, white, and blue baby onesie I made for AJ a while ago: it’s really cute and so easy to make! Grab the “Born In The USA” SVG file here, then just cut out the graphics with your Cricut or Silhouette and iron it on to a plain t-shirt or baby onesie. They make great gifts for friends and family!

Start by uploading the Born In The USA SVG file to Cricut Design Space. Click the Upload button in the menu on the left, then drag and drop or browse your computer to find the downloaded file.

Give the image a name and some tags if you’d like, then click the green Save button.

Select all the layers in a single color and then click the Attach button at the bottom right. Repeat for all four colors.

Now it’s time to cut it out! Click the green Make It button at the top of the page. On the preview mats screen, select each mat thumbnail and toggle the Mirror switch on, then click the green Continue button.

On the Make screen, select Glitter Iron-On as the material.

Place the heat transfer vinyl onto the Cricut cutting mat with the shiny plastic side down.

Follow the on-screen instructions to load the correct blade, then load the mat into the machine. Press the Go button to begin the cut.

When the cut is finished, unload the mat from the machine and carefully remove the heat transfer vinyl from the mat. Weed away the background vinyl, leaving the graphic on the clear plastic backing.

Preheat your EasyPress according to the Cricut heat guide. Then position the heat transfer vinyl on your blank onesie with the shiny plastic side up.

Once the EasyPress is pre-heated, press the onesie for thirty seconds (or whatever the recommended time is in the Cricut heat guide), then flip the shirt over and press again from the back.

Carefully peel away the plastic backing.

Repeat the pressing process for each additional color in the design, making sure the colors on your onesie line up correctly. Once you peel the plastic backing off the final color, you’re done!
